Lately some of our members have been having trouble with Internet Explorer’s Smart Screen Filter (SSF) stopping pages on our website from loading correctly below the top of the page. Disabling SSF doesn't fix the problem but turning off Active Scripting (below) is something of a workaround although pages are no longer dynamic alternatively using another (better!) browser such as Firefox or Google Chrome works...
Firefox: Firefox web browser (http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/)
Chrome: Google Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome)
If you know anyone with this problem, please pass it on!
